Bhai,
Companies will not knock your house door in mid night, after completing the Course.
You only have to kick off the hurdles.........
Your learning process does not stop after clearing CA....... It starts only after that.
Since we have to learn till our life ends..........
Cheers......... Bhai.............Miles to Go...............

Hi everyone
I would like to share my story as a fresh CA. I passed out in MAY 2011 after 4 attempts and to be really truthful things were not better as compared to present situation for any fresher at that time.
I already had a good job with a CA Firm back then, but work exposure and prospects were not so bright. So for 4 months i.e after results in july 2011 i was frantically trying to search for jobs with better prospects ( actually i was bit confused to which sector i need to get in, same is the case with many of us moreover job oppurtunity were literally dwindling ) and ofcourse better pay. Though i had given more than 6 interveiw which also included campus placement interview i was not selected by any of the company or bank. ( This Reservation system in Bank and other public sector , Ohh that shall require some other day for discussion )
After 4 Months of frustration came one fine day of an interveiw arranged by one of my relative in Ahmedabad. I was interveiwed twice by CEO and once by Senior Manager of Accounts and Finance Department. The real twist came later on when i was asked to be posted to some remote location near pune on acceptance of their offer. ( Actually i came to realised later that nobody was willing to go to such remote location and though the management was not very keen on taking me in they too had very limited option ). And thus i was selected for a post of Deputy Manager in Accounts and Finance Department ( wait it a'it over yet ). My Senior at the remote plant location just resigned before my joining the company, and "waalla" i become the most senior person at plant location in my department.
First 9 months with the company has gone by and feel myself really lucky to get such an oppurtunity. Though their are always some cons with the pros, that i have leave away from home, no friends and family. But this all has made me more stronger mentally.
My intention to narrate my story is to provide some encouragement to fresher CA's and to trust on their stregth, abilities and their destiny.

Hi anand , how you can be ready to work for just 10k p.m. in todays inflationary scanario cost of living so much high i dont know how you can survive for 10k. * m very surprised if these kind of offers u receiving from market or practicing firms.......;..
"a ca ready for work at 10k"
its a very big news & downtrend signal of CA/ICAI reputation *
so shameless ICAI.... sun lo ICAI ab to hamari...
kyun aisi halat kar di icai ne hamari...
@ anand- i think you should start practice plus work parttime whereever you interested means if like teaching then teach or do part time accounting work..
sum up of all above will fetch u more than 20 k p.m.

Do not Compare yourself with others.
Think about yourself.
About practice, to learn swimming you get in to water and learn. Without getting in to water it is impossible to learn swimming. I think you can understand.
So, If you want to practice, go ahead and do something for that. Initially it will be dificult for 1-2 years only.

Please do not get demoralised.. its just a matter of time before u can get the desired job. If you are not getting the kind of job that you are interested in, seek the alternative options, sectors or domains that draw your interest and attention. And don't think of working for 10000. Remember, its better to remain "unemployed" for a few months than remaining "underemployed or underpaid" for years.
All the best for your career endeavours.

Hi...Anand,
Don't be so negative, Qualifying CA exam alone can't give job assurance...unless u r good at some other aspects ...mostly in communication skills.
First - improve your communication skills
- Improve subject knowledge
- Be aware your strengths & Weakness (Focus on your weaknesses)
- Be aware you r worth more than what you think of urself
- Don't waste your valuable time and join in a audit firm ( Whatever be the salary)
- Look at the possibilities of starting your own practice.
BE POSITIVE...BE POSITIVE

Few Jobs for CA are available in Public Sector Untertaking (PSU) but it is difficult to crack written exam for PSU.

Dont get depressed.
Heard you are from Kerala. You can try at Manappuram Finance (Gold Loan Company), Thrissur Dist. They are offering pretty good package for CAs. From 40 K pm & above.
Just prepare your CV in an attractive way, attend interview with full confidence.
But please never say you are ready to work for 10K. Just say as per market standards (just say 30-45K assume would be the market std, if they further insist).
Best wishes.
